We don’t have to wonder if Ghosts will be cancelled anytime soon. In February 2025, CBS renewed the comedy series for seasons five and six. Could year six be the end of this popular sitcom, or will it continue for many years to come? Stay tuned.
A single-camera comedy series, the Ghosts TV show stars Rose McIver, Utkarsh Ambudkar, Brandon Scott Jones, Richie Moriarty, Danielle Pinnock, Asher Grodman, Roman Zaragoza, Rebecca Wisocky, Sheila Carrasco, and Devan Chandler Long. In the story, freelance journalist Samantha (McIver) and up-and-coming chef Jay Arondekar (Ambudkar) are a couple from New York City. When Sam inherits a rundown country estate in upstate New York, they throw caution to the wind and decide to convert it into a bed & breakfast. The hitch is that the estate is inhabited by the spirits of an eclectic group of people who’ve died there over the years. Following an accident, Sam discovers she can see and communicate with them, and their afterlife becomes far more interesting. The departed souls include a melodramatic Viking named Thorfinn, aka “Thor” (Long); a cynical native American, Sasappis, aka “Sass” (Zaragoza); Captain Isaac Higgintoot (Jones), a Continental Army officer; Henrietta “Hetty” Woodstone (Wisocky), an uptight lady of the manor; Alberta Haynes (Pinnock), a lounge singer from the Prohibition era; a naïve hippie named Susan “Flower” Montero (Carrasco); Peter “Pete” Martino (Moriarty), an overly polite travel agent and scout leader; and Trevor Lefkowitz (Grodman), a hard-partying stockbroker.
